This year’s participants and support of cultural foundations.

Konstrundan will be organised for the 19th time this year. The event weekend brings together almost 430 artists, craftspeople, designers and artist residencies from across the country. On 5–6 September 2026, participants will open their studio doors to the public, offering a unique opportunity to meet artists and gain insight into their work.

This year’s participants include both well-known names and exciting new practitioners across a range of art forms. Full artist presentations will be published in May on konstrundan.fi.

Konstrundan wouldn’t be possible without the support of cultural foundations

We would like to extend our warmest thanks to our funders: Svenska Kulturfonden, Amos Andersons Fond, and The foundation Brita Maria Renlunds minne sr.

Konstrundan relies entirely on support from cultural foundations and would not be possible without them.

At the moment, the team is busy working on the Konstrundan magazine, this year’s artist interviews, and other preparations for the event. Even though there are still five months to go until the event weekend, preparations are already well underway.
